Fender Crooked
I was wondering if I could push in a fender myself. I was changing my tire and placed the jack underneath my fender (my Bad) and as I jacked the truck up the fender bent really weird. Its not flush with the rest of the vehicle. Help is greatly appreciated guys....

Well...That's not good.You more than likely warped the fender and it's going to require some major work to fix.I'd have to see it to know what to do first though.If you're lucky,you could've knocked some of the bolts that hold it to the body out of line.But,I highly doubt that you are that well off.More than likely,if you literally had the jack on the sheet metal of the fender and not under the frame,you bent the paper-thin steel which makes up your Ranger's fender.
If you want to fix it,the cheapest way would probably be to check the pick n' pulls and find a replacement fender or buy a replacement panel from a body shop or LMC.
BTW,sometimes a 3lb. sledge hammer works wonders
